So downloaded the new build of Windows 10 for phones out today on my Lumia 930, as cool as it was it's buggyness and bad rendering meant I can't really face living with it right now!
So downloaded the Windows Phone Recovery Tool 2.0.3, it identifies the phone, downloads the file, then 'Checking Anti-Theft Protection Status' while the phone goes into a restart loop. After a couple of mins 'Operation ended with a failure - try restarting etc.'
I tried the Lumia Software Recovery Tool 5.0.7 which got to the installation screen and said 'waiting for phone' while the phone itself displayed a 'refresh' like symbol in the screen. After a couple of minutes of nothing the program says 'restarting phone, flashing canceled' (or words to that extent).
I can see loads of people online have had issues, particularly with bricking devices (thankfully mine is still running W10), but would really like to go back to 8.1 asap. Anyone got any ideas here? Is there a better route to recovery than what I've been attempting?
